A beloved century old tradition returns as seven magical new vignettes light up 176 Yonge Street, from December 14th to January 2nd.
BOLTON, ON (December 15, 2025) – For almost 100 years, Toronto’s historic holiday windows have been a cherished symbol of the season, sparking wonder and marking the start of the holidays for families across the city. This year, Mars Canada is helping ensure that tradition continues, unveiling Wonders of Mars: a free, seven-window storybook experience that’s brings joy, nostalgia, and community spirit back to the streets and the heart of Toronto.
The Wonders of Mars windows are a whimsical, magical depiction of a day in the life of the Mars Elves — the behind-the-scenes creators who help bring moments of holiday happiness to families and pets across Canada. Each vignette reveals a different moment in the elves’ day, from their morning routine under a Hubba Bubba-pink sky, to seeing them hard at work at the Mars Chocolate Factory and freeze drying Skittles into Mars’ latest innovation, Skittles Pop’d. The journey ends as they travel through the icy cool Winter Wonderland and settle down to end their day together with a warm holiday meal, alongside their furry friends.
“As a family-owned company with more than 100 years of history, we know how deeply traditions shape joy and connection,” says Ellen Thompson, General Manager, Mars Wrigley Canada. “We’re proud to give back to the community by helping continue a holiday tradition that has sparked magic and happiness for families across the city.”
